The Northland Christmas Store, Inc. is a 501(c)3 corporation dedicated to providing aid at Christmas time to needy persons and families of Clay County. Our goal is to see that each deserving person or family has ample food and the each child has gifts.Our funds come from individuals and organizations that have the same goals in mind. Our funds are not controlled by a fixed budget but by a flexible plan that permits funds to be spent in the area of most need.Our Board of Directors consists of 27 local persons with a chairperson, co-chairperson, secretary and treasurer selected from the board. All of the Board and Officers are volunteers serving without any form of compensation. Many have served since 1988 when the Store first opened. A local business provides warehouse space at no cost. Local schools hold canned food drives each year and thousands of cans are collected and donated so our funds can be used for perishables and gifts.All funds donated are used for the benefit of those in need and none are spent without careful consideration.
